I am hyperactive and enthusiastic optimist, looking to pursue full time career in acting. I am passionate about what I do and I give it 100%. I am able to improvise, listen and take on the directions. I have been acting since my teenage years and have now finally decided to turn the favourite hobby into a full time job. I am very emotional person, but in everyday life there are not enough events to express it. Acting is my way to do it- to get excited, angry, sad and then happy again. It’s very exciting to dwell life into script and see how scenes develop and make the story come true. I am eager to learn and always studying something (new acting techniques, music, dancing or photography) to keep my mind sharp and busy. Anything that requires creativity and artistic mind attracts me like magnet. Cameras and sound equipment produce the same effect.
